Hi, I have oily acne prone skin and get acne frequently.
Is it okay to use a substitute cream of the same composition for skin treatment.

3.
Instead of Glocin Gel (CLINDAMYCIN 1%W/W+NICOTINAMIDE 4%W/W)

Instead of Retino A (Tretinoin 0.05 %) or Tretin 0.05%

No.. treatment depends on the grade...Acne or pimples... Due to hormonal changes..Oily skin causes it...Common in adolescent age...May occur in adults also.. Food like Oily foods, ice cream, chocolate and sweets increase it.. Treatment depends on the grade of pimples or acne..So, please send photos by direct online consultation as it's a must to see which grade of pimples or acne for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
